REMARKS: “Kittiwake” is a real Gem of a find. She has been under cover in current ownership and previous ownership for a total of around 16 years and in current ownership has been mostly restored. She is thoroughly original in her layout and construction, has the addition of a BMC 35HP diesel fitted in the late 1970’s but recently serviced and refitted to the boat. To an enthusiast she would be joy to add the finishing touches and enjoy sailing in such a lovely and roomy classic. Her present owner has partially re-caulked, re-fastened the garboard planking, fitted new iron keel bolts, refitted the engine and cosmetically refurbished her. She is exceptional value and can be seen under cover ashore at the owner’s farm.
